Chapter 204: The Struggle for the Throne (8)

Jian Shuo's gaffe attracted a lot of attention, but Jian Shuo didn't have the time to satisfy their curiosity! Instead, he hurriedly beckoned Empress Dowager Dong and Zhuang Shaoyou to walk into the palace.

When there were only three people left in the hall, Jian Shuo said eagerly: "Queen Mother, General Zhuang, He Jin has gathered people to kill him!" There are a lot of people, and this time I'm afraid it's going to be a nest! The West City Gate has fallen into He Jin's hands! ”

Empress Dowager Dong and Zhuang Shaoyou were also a little surprised, but they didn't expect that He Jin didn't intend to solve the problem peacefully at all, as soon as he made a move, it was a thunderous method, this was to solve all political enemies at once! Where did he get such a strong confidence? Who gave him confidence? The Ten Standing Servants have already had a rift with He Jin, and their attitude is ambiguous, and they will definitely not support He Jin to eliminate all the opposition, in that case, wouldn't He Jin be even more unscrupulous?

The support of the Yuan family? The Yuan family only has influence, and can't provide much support in terms of force?

Everyone was puzzled, only Zhuang Shaoyou knew best that Dong Zhuo was coming! However, even if Dong Zhuo came, he didn't come so quickly, right? If Dong Zhuo really approached Luoyang, it would be impossible for so many forces not to receive any rumors! So what does it mean to be the first to do it? What did he do to suppress the tripartite alliance of Jian Shuo, Empress Dowager Dong and Zhuang Shaoyou?

However, at this time, there was no time to hesitate, Zhuang Shaoyou immediately decided: "Queen Mother, Gonggong Jian, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, no matter what, we have to meet the enemy immediately!" ”

Empress Dowager Dong and Jian Shuo both nodded in agreement: "It's all up to the general this time!" ”

What they said was true, without Zhuang Shaoyou, the 10,000 people of Xiyuan Army and Dong Chong would definitely not be able to stop He Jin!

Zhuang Shaoyou hesitated for a moment, but still said: "Queen Mother, father-in-law, can you hand over your subordinates to the unified command of this general?" ”

Empress Dowager Dong and Jian Shuo were both embarrassed, if it was someone else, they would agree without hesitation, but Zhuang Shaoyou was different!

Who is Zhuang Shaoyou? God! When I first arrived in Luoyang, more than a dozen people dared to go against He Jin, and they also robbed women with the emperor, and the courage was absolutely leveraged!

What's more, the lessons of the past are still in front of us! Last time, He Jin instigated Yuan Shu to lead 8,000 tiger troops to attack Zhuang Shaoyou, in the case of being killed or wounded by 2,000, Zhuang Shaoyou was still able to absorb the remaining 1,000 men and horses, and even the enemy army could be persuaded to surrender.

No, absolutely not! This loss-making business must not be done!

Empress Dowager Dong and Jian Shuo glanced at each other, and Empress Dowager Dong said: "The general's combat strength is fierce, the world is obvious to all, this time the general is the main general, the hussar general and the Xiyuan army of Jian Gonggong are on the side to respond to the general, and attack He Jin's flank, what do you think?" ”

Jian Shuo also nodded quickly, Zhuang Shaoyou frowned slightly, even if he can win in this way, this loss will be not small! When has this been? Are these two guys still looking forward to the future? But looking at the expressions of Empress Dowager Dong and Jian Shuo, it is estimated that it is no fun, it's just a joke! That's all it can be! This main force must also be the main force, Jian Shuo and Dong Chong's people will definitely not be able to withstand it, there is no doubt about it! If they are defeated and break up the rear team, they will be defeated!

Thinking of this, Zhuang Shaoyou sighed: "Okay! I hope that the two of them will move forward, this is not the time to preserve their strength, if the two of them are perfunctory, the general will directly lead people out of Luoyang! No longer wading through the muddy waters of Luoyang, if General Ben insists on leaving, absolutely no one can stop him! Then he turned around and gathered the army.

Empress Dowager Dong and Jian Shuo looked at Zhuang Shaoyou's figure leaving in a hurry, and glanced at each other, they were a little annoyed and a little helpless, Zhuang Shaoyou's threat was very effective, and it was their weakness, because Zhuang Shaoyou's foundation was not in Luoyang, and the harvest of this trip to Luoyang was already very expensive, so it was not impossible to retreat! With the combat power under Zhuang Shaoyou and the fleet in the south of the city, He Jin will definitely not be able to keep him!

But Empress Dowager Dong is different from Jian Shuo, everything about the two of them is in Luoyang, Zhuang Shaoyou is a profitable business, and there is no big loss if he loses; But Empress Dowager Dong and Jian Shuo are betting on all their net worth, so they can't afford to lose!

Zhuang Shaoyou walked out of the palace, didn't have time to pay attention to the curious eyes of those officials, and walked directly towards his five hundred guards, the leader of the guards was a thousand-commander, Le Jin's cronies, strong combat ability, and clever people, most suitable for dealing with complex situations, so Le Jin finally selected him to carry out the escort mission.

Zhuang Shaoyou said to the commander from afar: "Quick, send a signal to General Le and implement the fourth set of combat plans!" ”

"Yes! Subordinates obey! ”

…………

Luoyang City, the north city gate is close to the palace, in the hands of the Shichang attendants, the east city gate is in the hands of He Jin, the west city gate is in the hands of the Xiyuan army, and the south city gate is under the control of Zhuang Shaoyou.

He Jin gathered 25,000 men and horses to attack the West City Gate, responsible for guarding the gate is 2,000 soldiers of the West Garden Army, the combat effectiveness is very average, in the face of He Jin's army Mount Tai overwhelming momentum, has long been frightened, once contacted, immediately retreated, the West Gate was lost, the West Garden Army entered Luoyang's passage was blocked, if it is a detour, whether it is the north gate or the south gate distance will be much farther, so far, He Jin has mastered the strategic initiative.

At this time, He Jin made an unexpected move, he did not strike while the iron was hot, and quickly attacked the West Garden to catch the opponent by surprise, but ordered his subordinates to leave some men and horses to guard the West Gate, and he personally attacked the Rong Mansion with 20,000 elite soldiers.

Yuan Shao was very anxious when he saw this, and couldn't help but come forward to dissuade him, after all, the West Garden is the focus, and the Rong Mansion doesn't matter at all! But He Jin didn't think so, since he became a general, he was used to being arrogant, and no one in the whole of Luoyang dared to collide with He Jin, but since this Zhuang Shaoyou came to Luoyang, He Jin has not lived a day, so this time he must be killed!

He Jin also knew that Zhuang Shaoyou was not so easy to catch, so he went to catch his subordinates and women first! By the way, disturb his military spirit, so good! Haha, he's a fucking genius! He Jin was complacent about his clever plan.

A quarter of an hour later, He Jin's vanguard arrived at the Rong Mansion at full speed, but seeing that the gate of the Rong Mansion was closed, there was no movement at all, and those soldiers also cautiously stepped forward to check, for fear of any trap, after all, Zhuang Shaoyou's name is also thunderous in Luoyang, since the conflict between He Jin and Zhuang Shaoyou, there are definitely not a few people who have died at the hands of Zhuang Shaoyou! The losses of He Jin's family alone were as high as 5,000 people, and Yuan Shu's Tiger Ben army still had 2,000 people!

The commander at the head of the commander didn't hear a single movement for a long time, pondered for a while, and ordered loudly to his subordinates: "Knock the door open!" ”

Twenty or so soldiers rushed towards the gate of Rongfu with a huge log, one, two, three, and soon, the gate opened, and the soldiers in charge of hitting the door retreated one after another, for fear of being killed by random arrows, but there was nothing.

Soon, the Rong Mansion was turned upside down, only the large items that were not easy to move were still there, the valuable things had long been gone, and there were no people, and there were still a few tea bowls on the desk in the main hall, and the tea inside was still steaming! Apparently the person has just been gone for a short time!

The Qianfu was taken aback and hurried to report to He Jin.

He Jin heard the report of his subordinates, stroked his big belly, sat in the carriage, and scolded while gasping: "Zhuang Shaoyou on the dog day!" Dare to run! To the old chase! ”

The commander hesitated for a moment, and then said: "General Qiyu, the remnants of Zhuang Shaoyou retreated to the south of the city, do you see if we are ......?"

He Jin was furious when he heard this: "Little rabbit cub, you dare to take care of the general's affairs?" Say, Who gave you the guts? ”

When the commander heard this, he quickly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "The general is angry, and his subordinates are just reminding the general that it is important to do business!" ”

He Jin was even more annoyed when he heard it: "Fart! Does General Ben still use you to teach? Say, are you sarcastic about General Ben's bad brain? Yes? Come! Drag it down and blame a hundred military sticks! ”

The commander continued to plead, but He Jin didn't pay attention to it, if this hundred army sticks went down, even if he didn't die, he would have to shed his skin! Moreover, he is basically crippled, and it will be difficult to take care of himself in the future! Besides, this is an order personally ordered by the general He Jin, and the people below don't dare to release the water even if they want to!

After the unlucky commander was dragged down, Yuan Shao came over and persuaded: "General, the matter of the West Garden is important!" That Zhuang Shaoyou is in the West Garden, and what remains in the house is just some local chickens and dogs, which are not worth the general's own hands! ”

When He Jin heard this, he bowed his head slightly, and ordered: "Leave five thousand men and horses to attack the south gate, and you must drive them all out of Luoyang!" The rest of the people followed General Ben to the West Garden to exterminate the rebels! ”

Yuan Shao wanted to persuade him again, but He Jin had already left and no longer paid attention to him.

The vicinity of Rongfu soon calmed down, leaving only the thousand-legged commander who was beaten to a bloody blur lying there moaning, the thousand-captain was all in despair, why did he have that mouth! The hatred for He Jin is even deeper into the bone marrow!

For the elites at the top, the people below are just tools, which can be discarded at any time, even if they are pinched to death on a whim, it is just a gesture, and they will forget it later, and they will not leave the slightest trace in their hearts at all!

And for Yuan Shao, saving that commander is just a gesture, but what does this mean to Yuan Shao? Yuan Benchu is a person who wants to do big things, and he has no time to pay attention to these small things! An ant is just an ant, what does his life or death have to do with me?

Zhuang Shaoyou's movements were already fast, the military order arrived, and the implementation was fast, coupled with He Jin's wishful thinking, the West Garden was already poised to wait, Wu Qian and Wu Bai's elite lined up in a three-section formation, and the 12,000 soldiers of the Jian Shuo West Garden Army were arranged on the left wing of Zhuang Shaoyou's army, and Dong Chong's 7,000 men and horses were arranged on the right wing, forming a peculiar sharp arrow formation, but this sharp arrow formation was a little deformed, and the troops were unevenly distributed!

The Xiyuan army originally had 18,000, and the 2,000 men and horses guarding the West Gate were defeated by He Jin, and the remaining remnants of the defeated army were unable to fight again, plus a certain amount of troops were needed to defend the interior of the West Garden, so Jian Shuo sent 12,000 men and horses to do his best.

And Dong Chong originally had 10,000 horses in his hands, all of them were miscellaneous armies, and their combat effectiveness was not in the stream, and they were divided into 3,000 people to defend the Dong Mansion of the city, and the remaining 7,000 men and horses were arranged here in the West Garden.

Soon, He Jinjun arrived.
